    Happy 4th to everyone. This is a 6 shot HDR from the Firemans Museum in Cape May NJ. Another group of heros in my mind. Processed with Photomatix. Have a wonderful holiday.

    Dave, a beautiful theme entry and you're right - they are heroes I think you could crop a little off of the left side which would eliminate the sliver of wood at the top left and also the triangle above the diagonal beam at the center if you wanted to be really nit-picky. Have a Happy 4th!!!

    Thank you Dave, Denise, and Cheryl. The museum is really small, buit offers some creative shots. There's always ways to improve images, that's why I come here. So many creative minds and constructive thoughts. Denise, Eileen says Hi back at ya. The catamarans are back in Stone Harbor but they've constructed a hurricane fence so the shot is not the same. I'll send a small pic for you to evaluate.

    Great interpretation of the theme with your HDR. The flags are a nice addition. I like your processing.

    Dave, wonderful image...I echo many of the comments made RE Americana. Cheryl makes a good suggest about taking a sliver off the left. Hope to see more from you.

    Love the effect and theme. nice work. If you really want to be very knit picky, I like the cropping suggestion, but also it seems just a slight slight bit in need of a c rotation. I think the lineup of the bricks in front give that away. But....very nice!

    Thank you for your time and thoughts Hazel. I actually did fiddle with the rotation on this and if I remember correctly I used the front bumper of the truck as a guide. Maybe I'll need to take a closer look. I appreciate the suggestion.
